Possibly, although I find it difficult to imagine a film of LotR where the destruction of the Ring does not provide the main climax and, whatever the adaptation, it is problematic to prolong a film too much beyond its main climax. Certainly, it would have been a very different kind of film and one which, possibly, would not have been commercially viable.
